The Inland Steel Building at 30 West Monroe, is located in the heart of the Central Loop, immediately east of Bank One Plaza. Recently purchased by a joint venture partnership which includes renowned architect Frank Gehry, the building is undergoing a renaissance to bring it back to its full glory.

30 West Monroe has a unique and significant place in Chicago’s architectural history. This Historically Landmarked Building delivered many “Firsts” to the Chicago office marketplace, including these accomplishments: 30 West Monroe was the first skyscraper in the world to be built with external supports and a steel and glass curtain wall. It was the first skyscraper with column free space. It was the first downtown office building designed by world class architectural firm Skidmore Owings and Merrill. It was the first major building to be built on steel pilings instead of concrete. It was the first downtown high rise with significant underground parking.

Aside from the many firsts which 30 West Monroe has to its credit, this innovative and pioneering structure offers tenants many attributes to make the space functional and attractive. Floor to ceiling glass offers abundant natural light to all sides of the floorplate. Under floor duct systems provide space for all electrical and data cabling, creating maximum efficiency and flexibility for space planning. Unencumbered views to the west and north look down upon the Bank One Plaza and the 1 S. Dearborn Plaza adjacent to the building, providing rare open space views in the center of the city. 67 parking spaces are located below the building in a secured and temperature controlled environment.

The building’s unique design has an offset core which contains the elevators, plumbing and mechanical systems. The building is fully sprinkled, and offers full service banking, ATM and on-site management as additional tenant services.

30 West Monroe is located just steps from public transportation, restaurants, hotels, retail shopping, the financial district, and local, state and federal buildings.
